Warlords Alpha VideosWe have several videos from the Warlords of Draenor Alpha. There's a "flythrough" (created with flight paths!) of Frostfire Ridge, as well as a Garrision walkthrough and UI preview, and a preview of all the other UI changes in the current Alpha build.

Don't forget we've got our usual roundup of all the Alpha's changes including quests, NPCs, Battle Pets and much more!

Patch 5.4.8: Justice Point NerfBlizzard has posted one tiny change to the Hotfix blog for patch 5.4.8 -- a nerf to Justice Point gains from non-random normal scenarios. This seems a slightly odd move given their usefulness for the purchase of heirlooms and other such gear.

June 4

Raids, Dungeons, and ScenariosQueuing for a non-random Normal Scenario now awards 30 Points de justice on completion (down from 70 Points de justice).Azeroth Choppers FinaleAzeroth Choppers, the unlikely reality TV and World of Warcraft mashup, aired its final episode today. Hosted by CEO Mike Morhaime, the teams took to a stage at Blizzard Campus in Irvine to see which bike would make it into the game for free. You can watch the tense finale below, no spoilers, but there was no mention of the losing bike going into the game.

Per Rygarius, the JP nerf was in response to "exploitative behavior". I don't have the details of what the exploit was, but I'm guessing someone figured out how to get JP superfast from a specific scenario.\rhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/Rygarius\/status\/474367087289573377

Scenario JP nerf seems to pretty clearly be targeted at people who were chain-running the fastest scenario and converting the JP into gold somehow- most of whom were likely gold sellers and\/or bots.

So do followers die? Or do they die-and-resurrect? I'd hate to have the very limited number of followers be depleted by my incompetence as a leader. :-)

I think they just fail the mission. I might be wrong though.

LOL @ the Orc Grunt in the Garrison video failing at riding the new wolf model. Also LOL @ how dragging followers to a mission gives you the tiny model of the follower and it's being strangled XDOooh, and that boat looks really cool. Looking forward to the different "taxi" things that I've seen mentioned in data-mining on here and MMO-C.

EDIT: NVM, signed up for twitch, will alert meh when the streams back up :)

These questions and responses about the Garrison and JP nerf are all well founded but let's get down to what the people really want to know... How do I get that Magic Bunny Hat?

What camera tool are you using for the Frostfire Ridge Flyover? I'm assuming it's not a flying mount. ;)

We're just using the regular flight paths :) We did a lot of questing!

As several people said, the scenario thing is targeted at chainrunning an easier one - think about it. Most scenarios can be pretty lengthy.\r\rNot so much with Arena of Annhilation. Stand in one spot, burn down the boss (which you can ignore mechanics on at this point), hit the gong, repeat. If I had to guess, that was the exploit.

Wow...they certainly did a superb job with the zone music in Frostfire Ridge

I'd like to know, too.

As far as i know, sending followers to do a mission can sometimes result in getting caught, and requires you whenever you will do a run into that dungeon to free your follower. I don't know if u have multiple followers on the same mission, if all will get caught or only 1 or 2

Although I am using a addon that combines all the bags into one, I am loving the fact that we can adjust each bag separately, saying this bag is for equipment etc.. really neat.

These questions and responses about the Garrison and JP nerf are all well founded but let's get down to what the people really want to know... How do I get that Magic Bunny Hat?\r\rI, too, would like the hat.\r\rAlso as someone who farms scenarios for the caches (I need a certain quest item), the JP nerf is justified. So easy to hit the cap with the 70 per scenario reward.
